Community Safety

The safety and well-being of our students, faculty, staff, and guests are of the utmost importance to Barnard. Offices and departments across campus are dedicated to providing a safe and secure environment conducive to learning. The Department of Public Safety, in conjunction with the Departments of Residential Life and Health Services, conducts training sessions, workshops and other programs on personal safety, protection of property, crime prevention, sexual assault, and drug and alcohol abuse.

Focuses on broad issues related to campus safety, including concerns about racial and other forms of bias and their consequences, accessibility, and advising on improving structures on campus for relationship building, training, and community oversight
